Background

Okonomiyaki is one of Japan’s most well-known and well-loved festival foods. It is made from seasoned flour, cabbage, egg (for binding) and any variety of meats and vegetables. These ingredients are all mixed together and cooked on a hot plate, just like a pancake. They are then smothered in delicious okonomiyaki sauce and other toppings. For other okonomiyaki flour options, take a look in japancentre.com's Flour & Panko section.
